Mathematical Research Data Initiative (MaRDI) Annual Meeting

11 – 13 November 2026

The annual MaRDI meeting will bring together researchers to discuss current advances in FAIR mathematical research data, from standards for metadata and ontologies to workflows for reproducible simulations. Central topics include research data in numerical analysis and scientific computing, as well as infrastructures such as knowledge graphs and repositories. The meeting will showcase concrete use cases and tools developed within MaRDI.

Random tessellations and statistical learning

21 - 23 April 2027

The aim of this workshop is to gather the researchers working in stochastic geometry with particular focus on random tessellations and those working in statistical learning with a particular focus on methods that utilise random partitions, creating the opportunity to foster new collaborations and get an input on recent developments in both areas.

6th Münster conference on inner model theory

5 - 16 July 2027

The inner model program and the search for ultimate-L is in a critical phase: it seems both possible that there might be an anti-inner model result at the level of a supercompact cardinal as well as fine structural models with all large cardinals are feasible.

Summer School on Calculus of Variations

19 - 23 July 2027

The Summer School offers an overview of modern topics in applied mathematics, with a focus on the Calculus of Variations and PDEs, including the treatment of nonlocal interactions, pattern formation, and stochastic homogenization. It is intended for PhD students and early-career postdoctoral researchers.

Categories and Symmetries

23 – 27 August 2027

The conference will bring together leading experts and young researchers working at the interface of quantum field theory, category theory, and representation theory. It will highlight recent advances in tensor categories, vertex operator algebras, and categorical structures in quantum field theory, and foster new collaborations across mathematics and mathematical physics. The meeting celebrates the 60th birthday of Christoph Schweigert, whose work has been central in shaping these developments.
